Riveting accounts of Leroy’s solo adventures while traveling to 19 countries in Europe will transport you from your armchair to the seat of a Venetian gondola, an ancient Roman Colosseum, as well as a Belgium dungeon where early Anabaptists had suffered for their faith. The author also takes readers on a brief tour of the Nazi labor/extermination camps at Auschwitz-Birkenau in Poland and enjoys both a dogsled and reindeer ride at the Arctic Circle deep within the forests of Finland. A brief visit to a hotel and restaurant, which are both constructed entirely of ice and snow, is certainly a memorable moment. Embark on a European adventure as you follow along in this fast-paced book. (280pp. color illus. Author, 2020.)
